What are good places to farm Pearls and Big Pearls?
In just X/Y or any game?
Route 8 (Murraile Coast): The only in-game location where you can find Shellder. Naturally it's a good idea to farm Pearls and Big Pearls here. You can find Shellders here by using your Good Rod and the rarer Cloysters as well with your Super Rod.
Friend Safari: Ice type safaris with Cloysters are also good places to farm Pearls andBig Pearls. It's a 33.33% chance to find a random encounter Cloyster here, but on the plus side you don't have to fish.
Other than these locations, Cloysters and Shellders, your main means of acquiring Pearls, are found nowhere. So these are.pretty much your only locations.
Wht are some good bug type Pokemon in pearl?
Do you have any good tips on how to beat cynthia ?

Southwest of Shanghai, and dating back to the Qin dynasty (221 – 206 BC) Hangzhou had evolved through the completion of the Grand Canal in 610 AD into a formidable trading centre by the time of the Ming Dynasty, but much of the original city would be subsequently destroyed by warfare during the period from 1861-1863.
The main attraction of the city for visitors is its West Lake area, with its pretty waterfront, now a UNESCO World Heritage site.
Two causeways stretch out across the water, the earliest of which is the tree-lined Bai Causeway, constructed in the ninth century AD, connecting the lake's northern shore with Gushan Island, the largest of two islands, a picturesque and popular walk. Gushan Island and its Zhongshan Park gardens was once the site of the imperial holiday palace for Emperor Qianlong (1711 -1799 AD).
The later and longer Su causeway cuts across the lake's eastern side, from shore to shore, and is likewise a lovely serene strolling feature for both locals and visitors to the area.
In the centre of the lake is the Mid Lake Pavilion and Ruan Gong Islet, while southward Xiaoyong Island, which surrounds the 'Three Pools Mirroring the Moon'. There are cruise boats, which regularly take visitors to visit the lake's features, and paddleboats for private excursions can also be hired.
The beautiful lakeside is fringed with lovely gardens, bridges and pagodas, and a great and relaxing way to circumnavigate its tranquil charm is by bicycle.
At the western edge of the lake, the thoroughfare of Yanggondi connects a series of islets at the northern end of which is Quyuan Garden, a delightful sight, especially during the spring blossoms. At the southern end of Yanggondi is Red Carp Pond, home to a thousand carp. Both of these sights can also be accessed via Su Causeway.
At the north end of the lake, Huanglong Dong Park is a beautiful hilly forested area, ideal for a walk, and contains the Baochu Pagoda and Buddhist Temple, Ming Dynasty Effigies, Ziyun Cave and the Sunrise Terrace, while at the southern shore can be found the six Harmonies Pagoda, the China Silk Museum, China Tea Museum, and Xishao Hill overlooking Leifeng Pagoda.
Designed for the traveller who wants to take the time to explore China's wonders more fully, this 21 day tour takes in a wonderful array of experiences, including the most famous landmarks such as Zhouzhang, the Great Wall, Terracotta Warriors, Ming Tombs, Leshan Buddha, the Forbidden City and the Temple of Heaven, combined with cruises of the natural wonders of Guilin and Three Gorges and visiting some of the country's spectacular gardens.

fires & floods press release
fires & floods is a labor of love on all counts. As Matt put it, "This is the first band I've been in since I was 19 that wasn't a serious, oft-touring band that I relied on for income...it's literally a labor of passion."
These guys have played together for years but despite real world callings and careers still can't resist playing and creating. fires & floods first LP is fast, dark and ferocious. The project is made up of Rob Fusco, Matt Canning , Phil Bryer, Tony Capponi, and Sean Ward. The mastering is being finished up now by Dean Baltulonis.
Rob is best known for his work in One King Down, Most Precious Blood, and more recently Recon. Matt and Phil played for Twilight Collective and Matt also played in Shai Hulud, Dark Day Dawning and xWIDOMAKERx. Tony and Sean played in Passion and Tony also played with Matt in the Dark Day Dawning and xWIDOWMAKERx.
The Voice at Your Heels will be released this spring on Bitter Melody Records via vinyl and digital distribution.
"The great thing about the hardcore scene(s) is that members from different bands are always up to the challenge of creating new music with each other. It's been happening since always and there have been some great side-projects and bands come out of the willingness to experiment and explore.
"Here we have Fires & Floods. Based out of Philadelphia, PA, the band boasts a few members that should be recognized: Rob Fusco (One King Down/Most Precious Blood), Matt Canning (Shai Hulud/Twilight Collective), Phil Bryer (Twilight Collective), Emidio Capponi (bass), and Sean Ward (drums).
The sound of Fires & Floods is well-steeped in hardcore but there is a meanness and ferocity permeating throughout. It's taking the best and harshest aspects of hardcore, grind, and even speed metal and shaking them until a new sound is made. Or something close to that. You'll have to listen for yourself…and you can! The band has a Bandcamp page set up where you can listen to three demo tracks. The band's debut album, The Voice at Your Heels, is being mastered right now by Dean Baltulonis and will be released by Bitter Melody Records. The same label who so far has put out a few note-worthy Most Precious Blood and Indecision reissues."

You take things seriously... but never too seriously. You're able to laugh at anything.
You've found your own little niche in life, and you're loving it. You have no desire to lead or follow.
What Neon Nail Color Are You?


We're in the process of a redesign for the blog (can't WAIT to show you), and while we were playing with colors and patterns I got all inspired to put some of what we were working with onto something physical, instead of it just living in the computer. I had a big blank table runner and a dining room that needed a splash of color, so I think you can see where this is heading. I love this project because it packs a lot of color and is kind of so simple you can't go wrong. So pick your favorite colors and let's get to it!
Step 1: Lay out some cardboard or newspaper to act as a backdrop and catch any stray brushes of paint. Place the table runner on top.
Step 2: Choose your colors. We chose three colors for the large painted pieces (yellow, aqua, dark pink) and two for the accents (light pink, navy).
Step 3: Use your main colors to paint some abstract splotches on the length of the runner. Use one main color to paint the largest splotches. Use a secondary color to paint a few smaller ones, and a tertiary color to sprinkle in here and there.
Step 4: Once dry, use your two accent colors to paint some strips of smaller, abstract dots. We layered the light pink over the dark pink, and put the navy in at random.
Step 5: Let dry and place it on your table.
This is so cute!! Can't wait to make one for myself.
Thank you! Snap a photo and tag #thelovelysquad so we can see how awesome your runner turns out!
I love table runners. They're such a cute and simple way of brightening up a room, or giving it a different look. I've never thought about painting them myself though, what a great idea! I love any chance to add a personal touch to my home.

The atlas of cancer
Nerissa Hannink | February 10, 2020
For anyone finding themselves on an unknown street these days, directions are just a few taps away on a mobile phone map.
By stitching together satellite imagery, aerial photography, and street maps, programs like Google Maps are something most people use every day.
Researchers have submitted human cancer samples from all over the world to produce the Global Cancer Atlas.
Scientists and clinicians have been seeking the same kind of resource for the journey that cancer cells take throughout disease.
To grow and spread, cancer cells take a number of genetic steps to overcome the normal cell controls that allow them to enhance their growth rate, move into nearby tissues and evade our immune system.
So, instead of satellite images, researchers have submitted human tumour samples from all over the world, piecing together their genetic information into the recently published Global Cancer Atlas.
The atlas is composed of the entire cancer genomes from more than 2,600 patients suffering from 38 different tumour types. The cancer types range from common forms like colorectal and breast cancers, to rare cancer types including pancreatic and brain cancers.
The 1,300 scientists and clinicians behind it belong to the Pan-Cancer Analysis of Whole Genomes Project (PCAWG), which gets its name from the 37 countries that have worked together for a decade to produce the map, now published in the journal Nature.
Just as the number of streets in the world is finite, so too are the genetic steps that result in cancer, despite being extremely complicated, says Professor Sean Grimmond who has led the Australian team of the International Cancer Genome Consortium (ICGC).
Professor Sean Grimmond discusses the work behind the Global Cancer Atlas on Youtube
"Every cancer is a results of genetic scars, which is damage that occurs to DNA over time," says Professor Grimmond, from the University of Melbourne Centre for Cancer Research and the Victorian Comprehensive Cancer Centre.
"By combining sequencing of the whole cancer genome with a suite of analysis tools, we can characterise every genetic change found in a cancer," he says.
"This includes all of the processes that have generated those mutations, and even the order of key events during a cancer's life history, the kind of information that a good route-planning resource will tell you," he says.
Scientists had already analysed cancer genetics for all of the genes that produce proteins, known as the exome or coding regions. However, 99 per cent of DNA – our genetic blueprint – does not code for proteins, but still includes important regions like those responsible for switching genes on and off.
"The information we previously had was similar to knowing all of the streets in the coasts of the world, but nothing in between, so the Global Cancer Atlas was undertaken to look at changes in every part of the DNA," Professor Grimmond says.
To begin the project, every cancer tumour was described by a pathologist including its tissue of origin and cancer stage. The cell's entire DNA sequence was determined and then uploaded into a cloud data-sharing project for analysis in order to the compare the tumours.
The Cancer Atlas aims to provide a personalised journey for the diagnosis and treatment of every patient.
"What the Cancer Genome Atlas tells us is that for every cancer there are approximately five genetic scars," he says. "The combination of genetic scars responsible for each cancer type is complex and involves dozens of different genes for each cancer type," Professor Grimmond says.
The work helps explain a long-standing medical challenge, where two patients can present with the same type of cancer, but they would respond very differently to the same treatment.
The head-to-head comparison of each cancer type in the atlas also identified surprising commonalities in driving mutation pattern between individuals suffering from different tumours which grow in different sites.
"This is particularly exciting as it provides a rationale for future testing of drugs known to be successful in one cancer type in patients with very different tumours that bear the same driver mutation profile."
The types of genetic scars identified by the Global Atlas range from single changes in a DNA letter to deletions, flips or rearrangements of chromosomes that contain thousands of pieces of genetic information.
Some of the most surprising results were finding the sheer number of genetic changes, what we call mutation signatures. We had previously identified 21 main types of signatures in pancreatic cancer for example, but work on the Cancer Atlas has revealed 90.
These changes can occur years, even decades before the cancer occurs and each type of change of mutation has a distinct signature. This uniqueness is a huge advantage when a patient presents with a cancer that has moved or metastasized.
For every cancer there are approximately five genetic scars, or DNA mutations.
"If we don't understand where a cancer comes from, we can't even rely on traditional clinical approaches to treatment," Professor Grimmond says.
This unprecedented level of data crowd-sourcing means researchers, clinicians and industry can now work together, anywhere across the globe.
"We have made all of the genetic information and analysis tools open access, for the fastest collaboration and development of new diagnostics and treatments," Professor Grimmond says.
"Having a harmonised dataset enables international researchers to learn from one cancer treatment and apply those findings to another using a cloud computing portal."
The next step is to add even more information to the atlas, the team aim to add ten times as many patient samples, analysing each patient at a time to understand how common each pattern of genetic damage is.
"Although the genome of each patient's cancer is unique, there are a finite set of recurring patterns of genetic damage, so with large enough studies we can identify all of them," Professor Grimmond says.
"Our goal is for the Atlas be used as a reference to detect cancers earlier, to provide a personalised journey for the diagnosis and treatment of every patient."
The Australian research groups involved include the University of Melbourne, Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre, QIMR Berghofer, Garvan Institute, University of Queensland and the Melanoma Institute of Australia. This article was published by Pursuit.

Get expert advice on botox compensation claims with a free, no obligation consultation.
In the early days Botox compensation claims were virtually unheard of as Botox injections were often the exclusive choice of the rich and famous, actors and actresses. The substance is extremely useful in achieving tight wrinkle free skin which in the eyes of many people improves their appearance. As the cost of Botox has fallen, so it is now more popular than ever and for many people a useful way of fighting back the ensuing years. It is a non-surgical procedure but as with any treatment which punctures the skin there are obvious risks and potential side-effects.
As consumers have become more aware of the risks and the duty of care which practitioners have to safeguard their customers, we have seen a significant increase in the number of Botox-related compensation claims. While many of us will be well aware of the term Botox, what exactly is it and what does it really do?
To give Botox its full medical breakdown, this is a drug which is manufactured from a neurotoxin which is produced by the bacterium clostridium botulinum which is generally referred to as botulinum toxin. In this particular instance we are looking at Botox compensation claims as a result of botched Botox injections predominantly connected with the beauty industry. Botulinum toxin is however used to address an array of issues including chronic migraines, squinting, incontinence, rapid eye movement, muscle spasms, cerebral palsy and the treatment of excessive sweating.
Only recently a new trend has emerged in America which has been dubbed "Blotox" which is a procedure that allows a blow dried hair style to be retained for an extended amount of time. The treatment requires around 200 Botox injections to the scalp which impacts with nerve ending signals effectively reducing sweat on the scalp. As sweating is part of the reason why blow dried hair styles begin to fall apart, this ensures that they can be maintained and therefore offer added value for money. Whether this will ever catch on significantly in the UK remains to be seen but it is yet another use of Botox.
First of all Botox is not a substance which should not be given by untrained personnel. It is prescription only and as such only a trained doctor, dentist, registered nurse or pharmacist is able to administer the drug in a clinical environment. As a consequence, the injection of Botox should not be carried out by beauty therapists who do not have the relevant experience, qualifications and clinical background.
There are obvious risks with any treatment which pierces the skin but in order to minimise potential infection and side effects, Botox should only be administered in a safe clinically clean environment. While some people may be under the impression that Botox can be administered in beauty parlours and similar cosmetic business premises, this is simply not the case. In general it takes between three and five days before the impact of Botox becomes visible and up to 2 weeks before the full effects are felt. In general, one dose of Botox can last between three and four months although it is advisable to take professional advice regarding overuse and the potential side-effects.
Botox should never be administered to pregnant or lactating women or individuals who have in the past experienced allergic reactions to Botox or any of its ingredients. While it might be fairly obvious if a lady is pregnant or lactating, if you do not make the practitioner aware of potential allergies and you have an issue with the Botox injections this will severely impact any potential Botox compensation claim. The practitioner has a duty of care but the customer also has a duty of care to advise the practitioner of all relevant issues.
Temporary drooping of face muscles.
Possible breathing difficulties if Botox has been injected to the neck.
This is just a selection of some of the possible side-effects of Botox, many of which are extremely short lived although others may last longer. In some circumstances additional medical assistance may be required.
Such has been the demand for Botox in relation to beauty therapies that in some cases non-qualified personnel have been administering it. Legally, only regulated doctors, pharmacists, dentists and registered nurses are allowed to administer Botox but this is big business and some people have crossed the line without the relevant qualifications/ experience.
It is not just the fact that Botox is to all intents a "toxin" and should be handled with care but those administering Botox must also be trained and experienced in treating side-effects. While the vast majority of people will have limited or no side effects there are some who will experience an immediate adverse reaction. In some circumstances this can be life-threatening hence the reason why only regulated personnel should administer Botox.
If Botox has been given by a non-qualified practitioner or indeed administered in a negligent manner or a dangerous environment, then any injuries incurred may leave the practitioner libel to damages in a Botox compensation claim.
The beauty industry, more than any other, tends to promote an array of treatments which will "hold back the tides of time". Botox is a simple injection which can alleviate wrinkles thus giving the person a more youthful appearance in the eyes of others. There is nothing wrong in using Botox in the correct manner in the correct environment to alleviate wrinkles, plump lips or any other cosmetic use. However, where a company promotes a certain result from Botox injections, which it fails to deliver, it can leave them open to a Botox compensation claim.
Even though some people may believe it is a little vain to launch a Botox compensation claim because of a failed beauty treatment, it is all down to what the company in question promised. Whether looking at a painter and decorator seeking to give your house a particular style or the purchase of a vehicle which does not deliver on promises, it is no different with regards to beauty treatments. You are paying for a service and you are paying for an end result.
Where there are no specific injuries, but a practitioner has failed to deliver on their promises, a claimant can pursue a Botox compensation claim for distress and unhappiness. Where there is a specific injury this can extend the potential claims range to take in compensation for the actual pain and suffering, and possible life changing circumstances, together with any distress and unhappiness. These are referred to as general damages with special damages taking in the likes of additional medical costs, travel expenses and related expenditure going forward.
If you believe you may have a Botox compensation claim as a consequence of a Botox related injury then you should contact a personal injury solicitor with details of your treatment. This should include the time and place, practitioner involved, treatment promised, treatment delivered together with any side-effects and injuries. Thankfully the vast majority of injuries relating to Botox injections are relatively short lived but there have been instances of long-term muscle damage and disfigurement. Whether the injuries are likely to be short lived or long-term, it is useful to have any medical support and assessment of the situation to back up your Botox claim.
After assessing your claim the personal injury solicitor will advise you accordingly and if further supporting evidence is required they will inform you of this and help to obtain it. The next stage is to lodge the action and advise the defendant accordingly. The claims process generally goes one of two ways, either the defendant will settle the Botox compensation claim out of court where negligence and liability have been proven or the claim will go before the courts.

Please take a look at the wedding services Spring Forth Farm offers and look at the General and DIY wedding FAQ pages to answer any questions you have. We really appreciate your sharing our farm website with any friends or family planning a wedding or event in this area.
Our friend Thomas Fisher approached us a couple weeks ago about taking pictures of us starting Spring Forth Farm for a portfolio project he's working on. Tom is a talented photographer and we are honored that he asked us and excited to see the moments he captures. A couple days ago, we had to take care of some things on the new land, so we invited him out to see the property. Here are a few photos from his first visit.


Imagine this situation: you are driving in the unfamiliar territory and you get lost. Then at an intersection you see two people: one is alive another is dead. Whom would you ask for directions?
If people still turn to Jesus Christ for directions in their lives, if people still open the Bible looking for directions in their lives it is because Jesus Christ, the one who was crucified and laid in the tomb is risen, he is alive. That's what we see in the scene captured by the Gospel of St John. By the way, did you notice how much running happens in this Gospel passage? Mary Magdala runs back to the city after seeing the empty tomb. Peter and John run to the tomb after Mary tells them about the missing body of the Lord. Lots of running, like on a typical morning in Melbourne when people go jogging. However the Gospel doesn't tell us about joggers because it was the time before jogging was invented. When I was a kid, seeing a running person I would think about two scenarios: the person was late for an appointment or something big happened to the person, and he or she was running to tell the news or ask for help. The Gospel for this Mass shows us the second scenario: those people we heard of run because something big had happened to them: Jesus Christ had risen from the dead. His Resurrection changed everything. The tomb was empty but their lives weren't empty any more, Jesus was in their lives again, not simply as a fond memory from the past but as a real person, their true Saviour.
A few weeks ago I listen to a conversation on the radio. A man was talking about his family. What he remembered of his Dad was that his father was always carrying a briefcase. He said: "As a child I thought: My Dad is a serious businessman, always taking important documents with him to work on them." When his Dad died they found the briefcase in his room. Do you know what they found inside? Love letters from his wife. He was reading them all the time. He was a serious businessman and though the letters didn't offer him advise how to solve problems at work they gave him an assurance that back home there was a person who loved him when he was successful and when he was failing. Jesus' resurrection wasn't a show of a superstar to make us say: WOW. Do you know why Jesus rose from the dead? For you and for me so that we could believe that in Jesus we have our sins forgiven. It means that God doesn't love us more when we are good and loves less when we fail, when we sin, but he loves us always. That's why the Easter stories should be in your briefcase, or better to say in your heart and mind, as the one who rose from the dead wanted to be understood by all.
He said I am the bread of life so that bakers could understand him. He said I am the living water so that plumbers could understand him. He said I am the light of the world so that electricians could understand him. He said I am you teacher so that school people: big and little could understand him. He said I am the way so that drivers could understand him. He said I am the truth so that the politicians could understand him. He said I am the friend of the tax collector so that tax office people could understand him. He said I am the friend of sinners so that I could understand him. He said I am the wine so that people from Barossa Valley could understand him. He said I am the Good Shepherd so that our farmers could understand him. He said I am the Resurrection and the Life so that all of us who dream and hope that our story doesn't finish with the last heartbeat could see those dreams and hopes fulfilled by the One who rose from the dead so that we could have faith in him to cling to.


H330's 'Find Tha Way' is out March 8.
The next release on Concrete Music comes courtesy of mysterious Parisian producer H330, out next week.
Late in 2015, Paris-based Concrete split it's label into three sub-divisions, with "each one representing a particular atmosphere and mood. Labelling a sound to a music style being too restrictive, Concrete decided to choose time slot as a determining factor." Their next release comes courtesy of H330, and will be on the 3PM division, which is designed for house and funky tracks. So far the 3PM sublabel has put music out by San Proper, Hold Youth, S3A and Trus'me & Curses.
There is little known about H330 at this point, with this being his debutant release. The release, Find Tha Way, comes with two original tracks, plus one edit.
Check out a promo video for the EP below. You can pre-order Find Tha Way at Juno.

Kerri Walsh Jennings, April Ross eliminated in final tournament of 2014
By Nick ZaccardiSep 26, 2014, 4:11 PM EDT
Kerri Walsh Jennings and April Ross were upset in the quarterfinals of their final beach volleyball tournament of the season, denying a possible first-time meeting with a new Brazilian pair that could be their biggest threat to Rio Olympic gold.
The second-seeded Walsh Jennings and Ross fell 21-16, 21-17 to an 11th-seeded Italian pair at the Sao Paulo Grand Slam.
Walsh Jennings and Ross, in their first full season together, went undefeated on the domestic AVP Tour and won four FIVB World Tour events, to this point twice that of any other team.
However, a new Brazilian pair of two-time Olympian Larissa and Talita captured the two previous FIVB Grand Slam events in August. Larissa and Talita were to play top-seeded Brazilian pair Juliana and Maria Antonelli in a later quarterfinal Friday.
The 2015 season is highlighted by the World Championships in the Netherlands next summer.

Chuck receives an e-mail from his former Stanford University room-mate, Bryce Larkin, who is now a CIA agent. When he opens it, he unwittingly downloads an entire server of sensitive data once only privy to the government of the United States into his brain.
Adam Baldwin (born February 27, 1962) is an American actor. He is known for his roles as Animal Mother ...
Colonel John Casey is portrayed by actor Adam Baldwin on the television show Chuck on NBC. He is partnered with CIA agent Sarah Walker to protect Chuck Bartowski.
As of episode 21 of season 2, "Chuck vs. the Colonel," Major Casey is promoted to the rank of colonel.
Virtually nothing has been revealed about John Casey's past or his family except his mother whom he called on Christmas. All that is known about is age is that he was 23 years old when he started training with his mentor, Ty Bennett. He was a choirboy and has perfect pitch. Although Casey has flown the B-2 bomber and expressed a clear interest in American military aviation technology he holds the rank of Colonel in the United States Marine Corps (In Episode 2 of Season 3, he states that he is a Marine before head-butting an assassin). At what point he was recruited into the NSA is currently unknown. Casey was mentored by Ty Bennett, who taught him hand-to-hand combat techniques and attempted to help Casey, who already possessed a short temper, find a "calm center". He also attended Roan Montgomery's course on Infiltration and Inducement of Enemy Personnel ("Seduction School") and failed it twice – although it was revealed that Montgomery failed him because Casey's partner was "too pretty," with Montgomery also musing that he should have failed Casey a few more times on account of his attractive partner.
Casey suffered a devastating personal tragedy while stationed undercover in Chechnya. He was involved with an Associated Press photographer named Ilsa Trinchina who was apparently killed in a bomb blast near the hotel where they were staying. The incident left him deeply traumatized, with cameras apparently causing flashbacks to the tragedy. It was later revealed that Ilsa was a French spy who had faked her own death. Ilsa reappeared in "Chuck vs. the Undercover Lover" as the undercover fiance of a Russian crime boss. Casey also had a final tryst with Ilsa after capturing the Russian crime boss before she departed for further espionage missions.
He has had previous dealings with CIA agents Bryce Larkin and Sarah Walker in the past, and has been intimately involved in some capacity with Sarah's DEA friend Carina as well.
Casey is seen as a staunch Republican. He is a supporter of Ronald Reagan, he is pro gun rights, and he has displayed distaste over the fact that Obama has discontinued Waterboarding.
According to an otherwise unmarked business card he gives Chuck in "Chuck vs. the Ring," Casey's personal private phone number is 323-555-0173. ("323" is actually a major west/central Los Angeles area code, but "555" of course is the fictional phone number prefix reserved for fictional uses, films and television—but nowhere else.) Casey's apartment number/street address at the complex he shares with Chuck and family is 1836 (street unknown). According to his ID card which Chuck once flashed on, Casey's NSA ID number is 5498-5684.

There's a thriving community of watersports businesses in the UK from Caithness through to Newquay, offering activities from scuba courses, snorkelling tours, boat rides, equipment hire and surf schools, enabling anyone from beginners to big kahunas to enjoy our marvellous coastlines. Watersports can offer the ultimate adrenaline rush whilst activities such as scuba diving evoke feelings of wonder unlike anything else – but conditions can be hard to predict, which means that you need to be prepared for any eventuality.
If you own your own surf school, hire out watersports equipment or offer scuba/snorkelling tours to adventurous tourists, you've probably seen first-hand what can go wrong when in hot water.
They say never work with children or animals, but when you're working in this industry it's unavoidable. Children are often easier to manage as you can reason with them to some degree and enforce rules, however, marine life is a different story. The presence of animals can make or break a trip. For example, if you go on a seal spotting tour in the Farne Islands and no seals are spotted, you might have some very disappointed customers. On the flip side, you don't want an untimely jellyfish attack during a surf lesson. The sea plays host to a number of potentially dangerous marine life and despite your best efforts, you can't always predict their location or actions at any given time.
Saltwater, rust and corrosion come hand-in-hand and because of this, you need to stay on top of the maintenance of your equipment. If you don't wash the salt off your equipment after every use this can lead to irreversible damage and a number of insurance policies won't cover general wear and tear caused by lack of maintenance. This also applies to leaks, osmosis treatment/blisters and more.
You also need to make sure that your equipment is safe and in full working order before each use. This is essential to ensure customers are safe when out at sea and is particularly important when hiring out equipment as you won't be able to monitor your customers as closely. This could result in an increased chance of damage to the equipment, or, worse still, failure of the equipment, rendering it not fit for purpose and putting your customer's safety at risk.
Most watersports businesses are required to remain extremely vigilant about the weather, including the chance of any sudden changes and upcoming storms. If you're caught up in the wrong weather it could be bad news for the safety of your customers and your equipment. If you're not sure, it's always best to veer on the safe side no matter how tempting it is to get out on the open water.
Rip tides/currents are one of the most deadly elements of the ocean and the hardest to spot. Whilst some rip currents are permanent features, others are unpredictable. Peter Dawes, head of lifeguards at the Royal National Lifeboat Institution stated that 'rips will move, and what may be a perfectly safe place one day will not be safe the next day'. These could be particularly dangerous for surfers and can catch out the most experienced of sea-goers. However knowledgeable staff and a strong safety brief prior to hitting the waves can lend themselves to the safety of your customers in unpredictable waters.
Both under the sea and in the cliff edges nearby, rocks can be tricky to spot and one wrong move can result in an injury to a customer. This could range anything from a scraped ankle to a serious concussion from hitting your head as a result of an unexpected wave. This could result in a liability claim made against you, putting your reputation at risk and incurring a considerable financial loss.
Despite the risks, there are plenty of advantages to running a watersports enterprise and spending day after day on the ocean waters, showing others your passion, is what it's all about.
Speak to Full-Time Cover today to find out how we can help insure your water sports business and keep your business going swimmingly.

Q: Can't get MenuItem to have its ActionListeners called I am trying to get a Primefaces MenuItem [within a Menubar] to emit an ActionEvent and call a method when pressed, however, the listening methods are never called, and I have no idea why:
xhtml page:
<h:body>
<h:form>
    <p:menubar model="#{testBean.model}" />
    <h:commandButton value="submit" />
    <h:outputText value="#{testBean.confirmation}" />
</h:form>
</h:body>
</html>

jsf bean:
@ManagedBean
public class TestBean implements ActionListener{

    MenuModel model = new DefaultMenuModel();
    private String confirmation = "negative";

    public TestBean() {
        MenuItem item = new MenuItem();
        item.setValue("Click");
        item.setUrl("#");
        item.addActionListener(this);
        model.addMenuItem(item);
    }

    @Override
    public void processAction(ActionEvent event)
            throws AbortProcessingException {

        // EXECUTION NEVER REACHES HERE!
        confirmation = "positive";
    }

    public MenuModel getModel() {
        return model;
    }

    public String getConfirmation() {
        return confirmation;
    }
}

It might help to visualise the very simple output:

I'm using Primefaces 3.1.0, and JSF 2.0

A: My first suggestion is to add some kind of debug logging to your action listener in order to find out, whether it got called or not. If it gets called but your site isn't rendering the changes it might be due to the following reasons.

*

*The action listener does not trigger an update of the client side DOM.

*The submit button triggers a request. The managed bean gets pulled up and reinitialized with default values, since it gets managed in a request scope. You should try putting your bean into @ViewScoped or @SessionScoped management.

By the way, we do not implement ActionListener. We assign method expressions to the menu items. Here is a short mockup example: We used an action of a menu item to toggle button states of a context menu. Hope I could help you  somehow.
Facelet snippet:
<p:menu model="#{menuBean.model}" />

Bean snippet:
@ManagedBean
@ViewScoped
public class MenuBean implements Serializable {

    private MenuModel model;
    private boolean cutAllowed = false;

    /** Creates a new instance of MenuBean */
    public MenuBean() {
        model = new DefaultMenuModel();

        //First submenu
        Submenu submenu = new Submenu();
        submenu.setLabel("Dynamic Submenu 1");

        MenuItem item = new MenuItem();
        item.setValue("toggle");
        item.setUpdate("contextMenu");
        item.setAjax(true);
        item.setIcon("ui-icon ui-icon-disk");
        ExpressionFactory factory = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getApplication().getExpressionFactory();
        MethodExpression methodExpression = factory.createMethodExpression(FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getELContext(), "#{menuBean.toggleCutState}", String.class, new Class[]{});

        item.setActionExpression(methodExpression);

        submenu.getChildren().add(item);

        model.addSubmenu(submenu);
    }

    public boolean isCutAllowed() {
        return cutAllowed;
    }

    public void setCutAllowed(boolean cutAllowed) {
        this.cutAllowed = cutAllowed;
    }

    public String toggleCutState() {
        toggleCutState(null);
        return null;
    }

    public void toggleCutState(ActionEvent event) {
        this.cutAllowed = !this.cutAllowed;
        System.out.println("toggle called");
    }

    public MenuModel getModel() {
        return model;
    }
}

A: The first problem with the original code was that I needed a unique Id. I discovered this early on, but it lead to another very annoying issues: the action listener would be called, but the page would not update. To solve this issue (as described here), you either disable ajax on the MenuItem or customise how it updates.
The correct constructor code is:
public TestBean() {
    MenuItem item = new MenuItem();
    item.setValue("Click");

    // New code:
    item.setId(FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getViewRoot().createUniqueId());
    item.setAjax(false);

    item.setUrl("#");
    item.addActionListener(this);
    model.addMenuItem(item);
}

A: @Mogwli, item.setId((new UiViewRoot()).createUniqueId()); will cause an IllegalArgumentException since new UIViewRoot() will not be context aware... Should have been item.setId(FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getViewRoot().createUniqueId());

A: First of all, your code snippet shows an <h:commandButton> which is not the Primefaces commandButton <p:commandButton>.
Secondly, you are not specifying the actionListener attribute of the commandButton to point to processAction.
<p:commandButton value="submit" actionListener="#{testBean.processAction}" />

Methodios I. (griechisch Μεθόδιος Α΄) war Patriarch von Konstantinopel (843–847). Mit ihm wurde der Bilderstreit in der orthodoxen Kirche von Konstantinopel beendet. Er wird in der orthodoxen und der katholischen Kirche als Heiliger verehrt. Gedenktag ist der 14. Juni.

Leben
Methodios wurde in Syrakus geboren. Er ging in jungen Jahren in ein Kloster in Bithynien.
815 weilte er in Rom. 821 wurde er in Konstantinopel wegen seiner bilderfreundlichen Haltung verhaftet. 829 wurde er rehabilitiert und bekleidete ein Amt im Rechtsapparat Konstantinopels.

Am 4. März 843 wurde er Patriarch von Konstantinopel. Theodora II., die die Regentschaft für ihren dreijährigen Sohn Michael III. ausübte, hatte ihn ernennen lassen, um mit ihm die Bilderverehrung in der orthodoxen Kirche im byzantinischen Reich wieder einzuführen. Bereits am 11. März 843 wurden in einem feierlichen Gottesdienst wieder Ikonen in die Hagia Sophia in Konstantinopel gebracht. Dieses Ereignis wird seitdem in der orthodoxen Kirche als Fest der Orthodoxie begangen.

Am 14. Juni 847 starb er in Konstantinopel.

While Christmas is generally considered a time for celebrations, it can also be a prompt to remember people who live far away, and/or people that you have simply not seen for some time.
I find it a very convenient time to reflect on friends, on our little piece of the world, and even the world in general. It also provides a wonderful opportunity to brush the cobwebs from my mind and contemplate the imminent New Year.
This blog was only started in October 2014 but has already been a very rewarding experience due entirely to all of you as you have made many comments, and have frequently clicked the "Like" button. The comments have been particularly interesting, and much appreciated, because they have shown a considerable understanding of what Ray has gone through in order to reach the "place" he is at now. When I have been very happy with him, comments have been made which were basically congratulating Ray! Some of his idiosyncrasies have prompted "Yeh…… my dog does that!" kind of responses which is very reassuring as Ray is my first dog, and so there are many situations where I either assume that this is normal canine behaviour, or that this is Ray's personality slowly coming out. Your feedback in this area is therefore always welcomed.
It has also been really interesting to visit your blogs some of which naturally orient around dogs, but there are numerous others with a totally different focus and which are equally enjoyable.
Most of this blog's visitors are, not surprisingly, from Canada and the U.S. however, a number of other countries are also represented in the stats! The Internet really has shrunk the world to an accessible size which adds a whole new dimension to this kind of dialogue!
It should perhaps be acknowledged that over the past 21 months (we adopted Ray in March 2013) we have received continual and quite amazing support and guidance from the Oakville & Milton Humane Society, a level of service which could not be offered by a pet store, nor probably by the majority of dog breeders. For those of you that promote the "adopt don't shop" message, Ray and I support you 110%! Why anyone would not adopt a dog (or other pet) from a Humane Society or other Rescue operation is difficult for me to understand.
In addition to the OMHS, I have leaned heavily on books by Patricia McConnell, and also by Pat Miller, and must therefore stress that while I would like to think that I now know a little about dogs, absolutely none of it was intuitive! Ray has been a real education in so many ways and I have every expectation that this will continue!
My sincere thanks are offered to all of you, and please allow me to wish you the very best of whatever is important to you in the New Year. I have every intention of continuing with stories about Ray as they not only give a glimpse of his "new life" as he integrates into our society, but also offer an insight into my challenges with him. If Ray could understand this blog, I know that he would be quite touched by the interest that you have all shown in him. Woof!

Q: I want to set a selectList to a value based on a field in the Database from Class constructor I have a selectList on my page. I want to be able to set the default value based on a field in the Contact being loaded. Is there a way to do this from the constructor?
As a secondary question it would be great to be able to only display some options again based on preferences in a field in the Contact. What would be the best way to accomplish that? Either build the selectList options or set render to false?
public String county {get;set;}

public List<SelectOption> getCountyList() {
    List<SelectOption> options = new List<SelectOption>();
    options.add(new SelectOption('0','Antrim'));
    options.add(new SelectOption('2','Armagh'));
    ...lots more options here...
    options.add(new SelectOption('60','Wexford'));
    options.add(new SelectOption('62','Wicklow'));
    return options;
}

contactInfo = [SELECT Are_you_an_Engineer__c, Best_described__c,
               Preferred_Counties_for_Volunteering__c, Home_County__c
               FROM Contact WHERE Id = :conID];

        if (county == null) {CountyList.set('Waterford'); } //would like this to be whatever Home_County__c is but doesn't work for just 'Waterford' Tells me CountyList doesn't exist.

A: You can assign the literal "value" to the backing variable. Since they're using numbered identifiers, it would look like this:
if(county == null) { county = '62'; }

You could even use a ternary operator to select one of two values, like this:
county = contact.Home_County__c == null? '62': contact.Home_County__c;

You can generate your list dynamically based on the contact. I wouldn't normally recommend using rendered="false" for each select option in the Visualforce page itself, because it uses up view state (limited to 135k) and is slightly slower to render than calculating everything on the Apex Code side, and you can even make the list transient so it doesn't use view state.

Q: Module algebras Spectrum: For Banach algebra $A$ spectrum is denoted by $\sigma(A)$ and defined as the set of all non-zero bounded linear multiplicative function from $A$ to $\Bbb C$.(Function $\psi:A\to\Bbb C$ is multiplicative if for any $a,b\in A$ we have $\psi(ab)=\psi(a)\psi(b)$).
Let $A$ be a Banach algebra, $X$ be a left Banach $A$-module and $\phi: X\to A$ be $A$-module homomorphism i.e., for any $a\in A, x\in X$ the equation $\phi(a.x)=a\phi(x)$ holds. Define
$$\left\{\begin{array}{l}\circ: X\times X\to X\cr x\circ y=:\phi(x).y \end{array}\right.$$
By this product $X$ is Banach algebra.
What we can tell about relation between spectrum of $X$ and $A$ or spectrum of $A$? Any idea can help.

A: Let $B$ be any Banach algebra with non-empty spectrum, e.g. $B=\mathbb{C}$. Let $A=X=B\oplus_1 B$ with outer multiplication $(a_1\oplus a_2)(x_1\oplus x_2)=a_1x_1\oplus 0$ and consider $\varphi:X\to A:x_1\oplus x_2\mapsto 0\oplus x_2$. One can easily check that $\varphi$ is a morphism of $A$-modules and
$$
x\circ y=\varphi(x)y=(0\oplus x_2)(y_1\oplus y_2)=0
$$
Thus $(X,\circ)$ is a Banach algebra with zero multiplication. Its spectrum is empty, while $\operatorname{Spec}(A)=\operatorname{Spec}(B)\neq \varnothing$. Thus, in general there is no relations between $\operatorname{Spec}(X)$ and $\operatorname{Spec}(A)$.

NASA and ESA to send next big mission to moons of Jupiter
NASA and ESA will collaborate to send the next big outer planet mission to …
Kunio M. Sayanagi - Feb 22, 2009 10:35 pm UTC
NASA and ESA have jointly announced their plan to send the next big joint planetary exploration mission to Europa and Ganymede, two of the four planet-sized moons of Jupiter. The decision follows years of anticipation in the planetary science community, where the last such big decision was made back in 1988 when NASA and ESA agreed to work together on the Cassini-Huygens mission to Saturn and Titan. That completed its primary mission phase in 2008 and is now in the extended mission, still in orbit around Saturn.
The decision this time came down to a choice between two mission concepts. The plan that was not picked was another mission to the Saturn-Titan system, which capitalized on the momentum gained through the huge and continuing success achieved by Cassini-Huygens. The anticipation among planetary scientists was evident at formal meetings and in coffee rooms, where it has been a major topic of conversation for months. Even Nature weighed in last month and ran a two-page special report and an editorial on the subject, giving their push to the Saturn-Titan mission, arguing that the technological breakthroughs planned for the mission, including a hot-air balloon to float in the sky of Titan, will further open up frontiers of space exploration.
The final pick by NASA and ESA, called the Europa Jupiter System Mission (EJSM), involves two spacecrafts launched separately by NASA and ESA. The plan calls for sending NASA's orbiter to Europa, and ESA's to Ganymede. The probes are, for now, called Jupiter Europa Orbiter (JEO) and Jupiter Ganymede Orbiter (JGO). The decision was based on, among many factors, the maturity of the mission idea. NASA has been studying mission concepts for Europa since the late 1990s, the first of which was the Europa Orbiter, developed under the Faster, Better, Cheaper strategy but subsequently canceled after a series of FBC-mission failures.
Visiting the moons
Next came the Jupiter Icy Moons Orbiter. JIMO was part of Project Prometheus, which aimed to launch a series of probes powered by nuclear reactors; however, in 2005, the plan was deemed too ambitious and the entire project was frozen indefinitely. Up to now, all missions to the outer planets have employed thermocouples driven by the heat generated by blocks of radioactive isotopes, as the dim sun makes solar panels an ineffective source of power in the outer solar system, but we've never sent a full-blown reactor.
The mission plan started converging toward the current EJSM design through the Europa Geophysical Explorer (EGE) plan in 2005 and the Europa Explorer (EE) in 2006. Both EGE and EE design concepts included an optional plan to land on the surface of Europa. Although the current design for NASA's JEO seems to be directly based on the EE concept, JEO does not include any lander.
Europa makes an exciting scientific target because it is believed to harbor a deep ocean underneath a relatively thin (i.e., tens of kilometers thick) shell of ice at the surface. Its craterless surface suggests that it is refreshed by geological processes, most likely through convection in the ice shell, and scientists are seriously studying the potential for life in the vast salty ocean under the shell. The potential for life was recognized soon after the Voyager flybys of the Jovian system in 1979 returned close-up pictures of Europa, which generated a huge amount of excitement in the field and inspired science fiction works such as 2010: Odyssey Two, which featured alien organisms crawling out of icy crevasses on the moon's surface.
Ganymede, the target of ESA's JGO, is the largest satellite in our solar system, with a radius that is bigger than that of the planet Mercury. Like Europa, it is also believed to harbor a deep ocean underneath its icy crust, except that its ice shell is estimated to be much thicker than that of Europa. The surface exhibits a mixture of old, highly cratered terrain and relatively younger surfaces, suggesting that geological activities at least partially renewed its surface in its past.
The moon also has characteristic grooved terrains, which is believed to be "wrinkles" formed when the size of the moon changed as the inner ocean partially froze and thawed in the past—when the liquid water ocean freezes, its volume expands, and the radius of the moon increases; the radius shrinks when the ice thaws. Thus, the surface geological features carry important hints to the thermal history of the moon.
Both JEO and JGO will carry ice-penetrating radars to peer through the surface. The radar on JEO is designed to be sensitive to ice layers at 3-30km depth, thus enabling it to detect the boundary between the ice shell and the underlying ocean, at least where the ice shell is at its thinnest. As Ganymede's ice shell is much thicker than that of Europa, the radar onboard JGO is not designed to sense the solid-liquid boundary but instead it will search for warm chunks of ice underneath the surface, which would provide hints of geologically actively spots.
Both spacecraft will also carry laser altimeters to observe how the shape of the satellites deform as they orbit in the strong gravitational field of Jupiter. And of course, they will carry a suite of imaging instruments that will take photographs at many different wavelengths of light.� These cameras will survey not only the moons the probes orbit around but the entire Jovian system.� In addition to JEO and JGO, the Japanese space agency JAXA is considering pitching in by launching its own orbiter, to be called Jupiter Magnetospheric Orbiter, which will take three-dimensional measurements of Jupiter's extensive magnetosphere.
The new mission to the Jupiter system will be the latest addition to the short list of "flagship" missions NASA has launched to the outer planets. The flagship-class missions are quite ambitious, typically costing several billion dollars (JEO is currently projected to cost NASA about $3.8 billion, while JGO will cost ESA �650 million). Since the 1970s, there has been about one flagship mission to the outer planets every decade: Pioneer 10 and 11 visited Jupiter and Saturn in mid-1970s; Voyager 1 and 2 toured the outer solar system in the 1980s and continue to explore the outer fringe of the solar system today; Galileo was in orbit around Jupiter from 1994-2003; and Cassini has been in Saturnian orbit since 2004. The launches of the EJSM spacecrafts are currently planned for 2020 and should arrive at the Jupiter system in 2026.
As for the Saturn-Titan mission concept that was not picked this time, none of the efforts that went into forming the mission will be wasted. NASA is forwarding the results of the mission-design studies to the National Research Council, which is conducting the Planetary Science Decadal Survey that will recommend a broad plan of solar system exploration for the next decade, 2013-2022—the report is due in March 2011. The exploration of Europa was the single top flagship priority listed by the previous decadal survey released in 2002. The well-defined Saturn-Titan mission concept is sure to get the attention of the new survey, and hopefully the mission will get a green light in the next round, probably in 10 years or so.
These large flagship missions have the potential to define the careers of many planetary scientists. For example, I am a recent PhD specializing in the atmospheres of Jupiter and Saturn, and I will be in my late 40s if JEO and JGO arrive at their destinations as planned in 2026. If I am privileged to stay in the field until then, the data they return will surely keep me busy for the rest of my scientific career, and I am hopeful that the Saturn-Titan mission will also materialize before i retire.
In the meantime, the development and construction of the spacecraft hardware will soon begin, and scientists will continue to study the Jupiter systems using existing data to predict what the mission will discover, and to better refine the requirements for the instruments that will be onboard JEO and JGO in order to ensure that their capabilities are optimally tuned for what they will observe. There's tons of work to be done ahead of us, and many exciting discoveries to look forward to!

Do you plan to add live video conferencing, like Dimdim used to offer when they still were in business? This is a feature we valued with Dimdim, but of course, can no longer use.
We are considering Freebinar as a good Dimdim substitute for our occasional small non-profit Webinars.
BTW, your recorded tutorial was very clear and thorough. Many thanks.
Great question. We are planning to roll-out a number of product enhancements around the second quarter of this year. One of the new features we will be launching is the ability to stream live video through a web cam. Even with all of these upgrades, Freebinar will remain free.
Thanks. That would be a welcome and useful enhancement.
Another question re your ads.
Do you choose which ads appear, or are they random from a third-party supplier, i.e., Google? Is the ad content appropriate for business use?
Currently most of our ads are served by various ad networks based on their inventory.
Based on your experience to date, will the ad content ever be inappropriate for business use? We wouldn't want to be embarrassed to use Freebinar because it shows ads that could be obviously offensive.
We don't currently offer any annotation tools, however we are constantly improving Freebinar based on customer feedback. I will pass this request on to our product team.
I second and third the request for annotation tools. I'm planning webinars for two different businesses and webinars for both would greatly benefit from a marking pen tool or highlighter.
Thank your passing along the request.
Great service, but it would be good if there is the possibility to talk with other presenters at the same time. this function will very appreciate!
Thanks for the great feedback! This feature will be coming to AnyMeeting very soon!
I have just joined and would like to record a training presentation that I can use at a meeting next week. How can I do this and edit any sections so that it is of the best quality when we have the meeting next week?
Great question. You can check our knowledgebase for information on recording your meeting. If you still need help, you can send an email to support@anymeeting.com with your query.
I just recently signed up for an account and had my first webinar. My only issue is when I open my powerpoint to file it open on my PC desktop before hand then when Iam doing it live, it keeps saying press onto the application your require. I click on the webinar screen in hope that it will change over to the next page. So I ended up having to close the webinar page, go straight to my PC desktop either stay on that page and click and speak, and go back into the webinar page to see if its the same page as my desktop, the go back out again to come back in. When Iam on my pc desktop the powerpoint is open full size..I cannot see people text, unless I have to go back in the webinar..can any one suggest the way of best sort this out? When I was with DIMDIM I was able to do everything on the webinar without going in and out.
Please send these details to the wizards on our tech support team – support@anymeeting.com. They should be able to help you in no time.
I have an i mac and during a webinar i can't find out how to screen share?
We did our first webinar for the company in the past week and all went well except when I gave screen sharing power to a co-worker. It never did work. I think I know why but if not will get back to you. Anyway, I have some self-contained PowerPoint presentations with Narration I would like to share through the webinar. The slide portion works great but is it possible to get the audio to share in the webinar as well? Thanks and a great product. The ads are not distractive at all and as long as non-offensive, they are appreciated in keeping the service free.

Another Milestone For Aamir Khan In China; Taare Zameen Par To Be Remade!
The project is currently in the process and will be produced by Chinese local banner and will be directed by Ma Duo.
China has emerged as one of the lucrative markets for Bollywood, with even small scale movies raking handsomely at the box office. Be it Aamir Khan's Dangal or the recent blockbuster, AndhaDhun, the Chinese audiences have shown a great love for the Indian content. Now, it is also learnt that 2007's hit Taare Zameen Par, is set for a remake in Chinese.
Taare Zameen Par was one of the nine Indian films to be showcased with English subtitles in China during the 60th anniversary of Indo-China diplomatic ties. Also despite being officially released in the country, the movie is amongst the most pirated movies playing in China. The movie was also attempted to release with Mandarin subtitles.
The source added, "But China does not permit the release of foreign films that are older than two years so that move was scuttled. But since the film rides on universal emotions, a collective decision of remaking it with a local star cast was taken recently," reports Mumbai Mirror.

Adhearsion - Adhearsion 3 is coming!
It's hard for me to believe - it's been 3 whole years since Adhearsion 2.0 was released in April 2012. Immediately after it launched we saw a spike in interest, activity, and new applications. The Adhearsion core team worked hard to patch up bugs and add in some important missing features. In the last 18 months though, Adhearsion core development has slowed down quite a bit, as much of the effort has moved to external plugins like IVR, ASR, I18n, Virginia, and ElectricSlide. We at Mojo Lingo have also been very busy using Adhearsion to build apps, and not needing to work on the internals, demonstrating the great utility of the framework.
But in 3 years we've learned a lot. Some of the biggest lessons have come from the desire to make certain things easier. Handling translations of an application, stringing together menus, even serving up grammar documents or an telephony API are things that took a little more effort than we liked in Adhearsion 2. We've also found that our initial implementation of input handling functions (#input, #ask and #menu) had some limitations that we were not able to overcome without breaking backward compatibility.
There will be a blog post going into more detail on this later today. Even better: Alpha 1 will be released later this week.
With your help, Adhearsion 3 is going to be great.
Re: Adhearsion 3 is coming!
Something that I find missing a lot in ahn, is going a bit low level.
For example, if I require to talk with Freeswitch directly, for example reading a conference details, then I do not have such tools with ahn, and I find myself many times develop in Perl or Lua instead.
So for example, to have the ability to do lower when required (communicating with a "conneted" class that execute commands for example), will help a lot when the higher level does not meet the requirements.
Thanks Ido, that's great feedback.
I think a great way to start that discussion would be to take a stab at how you think that API might look to an Adhearsion app. What would the method name be? What args would you like to pass? If we can get more specific about what information needs to be made available, we can work see how such an integration may be done.


Design of plastic bottles had preferred to use computer aided design (CAD) to propose desirable shapes. The strength also was regarded to pass the top load test unless an appearance of plastic bottles. Finite element method (FEM) was employed to analyze and predict the bottle shape which enough to support load under a collapsible regulation. Unfortunately, the redesign of bottle shape always performed when the desirable bottle shape had not passed the test. There was time consumption and loss of opportunity to compete producing of bottles. This research proposed a method to receive a desirable shape of plastic bottles together with top load strength. The master of bottle shape had been created which capable to change any dimensions before generated CAD and performed top load analysis with FEM. The artificial neural network (ANN) was employed to obtain the desirable bottle shape with top load resistance by varying dimension of the master bottle. The plastic bottle design would be performed rapidly with the ANN of master bottle shape. Consequently, the suitable dimension of plastic bottles which achieved by ANN could be used to design a desirable shape of bottles by using CAD and FEM without trial and error.
